trying to get an attribute value

[Mike]

Hello,
I'm trying the following code:
function MoveTeam(id){
This works-gets the value of the element
var x=document.getE lementById(id). innerHTML;
This doesnt get the value of the alpha attribute of the same element.
I get a js error.
var q=document.getE lementByID(id). attribute('alph a')
alert (q)

Thanks
Mike

You've upper-cased the ID in getElementById.

what is an alpha attribute ?
I know style (style="filter: alpha(50)")

but ... alpha as attribute of a div ... no I doesn't know.

I get a js error.
var q=document.getE lementByID(id). attribute('alph a')

if(document.get ElementsByTagNa me("body")[0] &&
document.getEle mentsByTagName( "body")[0].hasAttribute &&
document.getEle mentsByTagName( "body")[0].hasAttribute(' style') )
alert(document. getElementsByTa gName("body")[0].getAttribute(' style'));

I think the following might work more efficiently :-

if ( (T=document.get ElementsByTagNa me("body")[0]) &&
(T=TT.hasAttrib ute) && (T=T('style')) ) alert(T);
// ^ ?

Certainly there should be no need to repeat
document.getEle mentsByTagName( "body")[0].hasAttribute(' style')
except for those paid for code by the yard.
